If you believe you have been sexually harassed or you believe that
sexual harassment has occurred, you must report it IMMEDIATELY to the
Office of Equity and Diversity at (213) 740-5086.

If anyone informs you that he or she believes that sexual harassment
has occurred, you should immediately contact the Office of Equity and
Diversity, at (213) 740-5086, University Park Campus, FIG 202, Mail
Code 1261. The Office of Equity and Diversity is available to
students, faculty and staff at University Park Campus, the Health
Sciences Campus, and all other university campuses and locations. You
may visit us at our offices on University Park Campus, or we will come
to you.

Assessment and Referrals

The office will first assess whether the reported behavior should be
classed as sexual harassment or should be handled by the Employee
Relations office as a standard employment related dispute. For
complaints against faculty which are not classed as sexual harassment,
the complaint may be forwarded to the Vice Provost for Faculty
Affairs.

No Retaliation

University policy (and state and federal law) prohibits an alleged
offender from retaliating in any way against the person making the
complaint, against any participant in the investigation, or against a
person who protests the alleged sexual harassment or retaliation.

Or a detailed explanation of sexual harassment complaint procedures, read the university policies at www.usc.edu/policies.
